Opportunity
OTN produces a weekly audible version of local news, mainly from the Oswestry Advertiser and local magazines and it is run by a complementary team of committed individuals with varied skills.
The recording role involves visiting the Oswestry Guildhall on a Thursday morning on a rotational basis, to record the readers as they read from the Oswestry Advertizer and then collate all files onto one memory stick for duplication ready to be distributed to our listeners.
OTN’s volunteers can claim reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, subject to the production of receipts as evidence of the expenditure. OTN has a consistent approach to the reimbursement of expenses which are the same for volunteers and trustees, and mileage is based on the authorised Mileage Rate (45p per mile).
What skills do I need?
Whilst training is given along with documented procedures, this role does require individuals to be familiar and comfortable using computers, saving documents, and file transfers. They also need to be systematic and methodical and have the confidence to direct and organise the recording schedule and rota.
